Modi-bashing rivalry

Meanwhile, within the Congress, Narendra Modi-bashing is creating some mild internal rivalry between Ajay Maken and Manish Tewari, information and broadcasting minister, the two most vocal officials on this issue. Usually Tewari tweets early in the morning on some Modi-related issue which is followed by bytes to any television journalists who may be around later in the day. Now Maken, who is the media head of All India Congress Committee, was missing out on the sound bytes. As a result, he has smartly advanced the timing of his daily media briefing from 4 p m to 12 noon. That way he has not only managed to gain an upper-hand over Modi, but also his own party colleague.
